If the cable was heat resistant, it would have had details along its length to which BSxxxx it conforms to. In the absence of any indication, I would tend to assume it was general purpose PVC cable.

Well, the cable didn't have the distinctive feel of a silicone based insulant and, rather than rely upon labelling alone and ass u m(e) ption, I figured it was easier to try a "Char & Sniff" test to prove, definitively, that it was merely standard PVC insulated 10A 3 core flex. :-)
